    The lobby is a bit off-putting, and not having any visible staff around was a little strange, but it worked out fine.

    Some of the reviews I read said to ignore the dodgy-looking lobby because the rooms are great, and I'm glad I followed that advice, as this was my experience. The lobby looks like a grubby hostel at best, but the room was bright, spotless, and comfortable. The location, steps from the promenade, is amazing, and I found lots of good food options and shops within easy walking distance. Parking nearby was no trouble either. I found free street parking less than two blocks away along the waterfront.

    No parking in any of the nearby streets and not well signposted, drove around until found parking space on sea front 8 min walk away. Only when I accessed the room did I see the information on nearby car parks (St Michaels church) this is local and cheap £4 for 24 hrs.

    Easy access, room clean, staff helpful.

    Lack of parking. Not the hotel's fault, it's a big problem though. All nearby car parks full and onstreet parking was for an hour only

    Central location.

    Nothing major. The shower water was at low pressure, which is a common issue in many establishments in my experience. But it was functional, and the issue outweighed by other overriding convenience and quality issues. Certainly, I wouldn't hesitate to stay again.

    Very clean & tidy, and comfortable. Very convenient location, close to local facilities, pubs, etc., particularly Bank Vault, which is a great craft beer bar/music venue. A great base for a short stay.

    Easy walking distance of the station. Room was very comfortable and spotlessly clean. Perfectly located to see the town and beach front. Hosts were lovely and welcoming. Special mention for the efforts they went to when I left a necklace behind in my room. They made arrangements with me so I could get it back which meant a lot due to its sentimental value. Thank you!

    Economy style room in the basement with very cold floor and only a frosted window. No fridge despite in the room description.

    Great location. Seemless checkin. . Very clean in room and bathroom. Warm towels to compensate for the cold bathroom.

    Cutlery would have been useful. As there are no restaurant facilities and they allow dogs I think lots of people will have takeaways. But having a fridge was brilliant

    Comfortable, clean, great location.

    Stayed in this hotel previously, and would come again. The rooms and communal areas are very clean. Beds are comfortable. Basic facilities but fine for a short stay. Free parking was available in front of the old college building, just a short walk away. Hotel is in a good location just off the sea front and close to town.

    It’s a little quirky and feels maybe a little old but that’s not a bad thing. Struggled with the electric shower a bit but again not the end of the world.

    Really amazing location. Self check in was easy too.

    Unfortunately, the walls are incredibly thin. We were woken up early hours by a group of people staying below us who have been singing, shouting and shrieking all night after being asked to quiet down from other people staying in the hotel. Because of the volume and the activity of the people staying below us our beds were actually rocking and the floor was vibrating. We are actually leaving Aberystwyth early because of this, which is a shame as the town is gorgeous and prior to this we’ve had a lovely time. This is NOT the fault of the hotel at all but I would recommend bringing earplugs or something to cancel out the noise if you are staying here.

    The location of the property is absolutely brilliant, we’re very impressed with the value for what we paid. The hotel & rooms are spotless with the room being a really decent size. Checking in is very straight forward.
